I'm sure Dickie V knows a lot more than I do, but I see it very differently...I have the ACC and Big 12 as 1's, followed by the Big 10, Big East, Pac 10, SEC, others...
The only surprise here is that DickieV didn't have the ACC or Big East ranked #1. Wonder who he's sucking up to in the Big Ten? lol
I like annapolissooner's rankings a lot better. Maybe DickieV forgot that KU and UT are in everybody's top five nationally, and that no less than six other teams in the B-12 are expected to battle for that third spot in conference?
Keep in mind that last year, while most every BB pundit had Blake making their pre-season All-star team and many had him as their pre-season POY, Dickie boy not only didn't put Blake on his first team, Blake didn't make his 2nd team either. No east-bias there!
Although Dickie V. has lost a step as a prognosticator, he still remains king of the all-time name droppers.
